After years of use I have worn a hole in the bottom of a 12lb Lortone barrel. Is there any way to do a repair on these? Anyone know what kind of cement would glue rubber to rubber, or anything to rubber? I have nine of these running continuously, so more holes are certainly in my tumbling future. If I could extend their life, cool.

If I could extend their life, cool. I've repaired worn barrels using Plastidip spray. Works great. Tape the hole from the inside,and turn barrel upside down.You can rough up the bottom where you will spray. Spray in layers,letting each one dry.You can build up however thick you want it.Then I applied some to the inside bottom of the barrel after that.Let it cure a few days and roll away!Beats the heck out of buying new barrels! snuffy |
